Agribusiness DealRoom: Facilitating Partnerships and Investments
The Agribusiness DealRoom is a matchmaking platform that convenes stakeholders from across the agricultural ecosystem to facilitate partnerships and investments in African agriculture.
This platform specifically supports governments and MSMEs in accessing finance and partnership opportunities. Each year, the DealRoom is expected to attract over 800 companies, 15 government delegations, and 150 public and private investors.
Despite the success in matching MSMEs with investors, advanced deals still face barriers to financing, such as the need for upfront investment, bankability issues, lack of technical support, collateral requirements, and limited capacity of deal owners.
